Customers say: Quick response

"Brad Skinner and his team provide excellent services in the delivery and installation of 18 pallets of sod in my yard. He kept me informed on the timing of the delivery, called ahead to verify that i flagged the sprinkler heads, fully prepped the subsurface. Installation was done in one day. Power-washed our drive afterwards. He also offered the best pricing. Stand-up guy. Does what he says he will do plus more."

"I am highly satisfied with the job that they did. I just moved in a new home and needed a lawn cutting for my new fence to be installed. I appreciate them being able to do it on such short notice. It was a quality cutting. They cut the proper height. That is very important with the hot weather we are having not to mention the fact I have new sod installed. I can’t say enough good things about their company. Use them and I promise you that you will not be disappointed. Thank you Davis for a job well done."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
